WASHINGTON — Donald Trump and his supporters rushed Sunday to defend the Republican nominee following revelations that he may not have paid income taxes for 18 years, a new disclosure that shook the presidential race and capped an extraordinarily damaging week for Trump’s campaign.
News that Trump could have spent nearly two decades without paying income taxes — largely because he reported a loss of nearly $1 billion in the mid-1990s — threatens to puncture one of the core arguments of his campaign: that he is a successful businessman who could do for the country what he has done for his businesses.
